This Time is a Set Up

The location was in the living
room of my Home in Bethesda, Maryland.
The "Take It!” came from
having finally placed a small clock in a location of extreme convenience for me to refer to while in my "Declier" (ever so comfortable chair). I often get
caught up in reading and loose track of time. A big clock on the wall seems to be more of a kitchen item - so, to bring this into the game has been a really
cool answer to many a past question.
The lamp is one inherited from
my parents estate and was retrofitted to accomodate a huge wattage bulb, so that as a single light in the room, I still have plenty of illumination. While
knowing my Mother spent many hours reading by this same lighting fixture is not a constant, it is an occasional comforting thought.
Here is hoping each of you has
such a piece in your own dwelling that you have inherited and use or refer to on a constant basis.
Wishing everyone a chance to
enjoy what it takes to bring about the pleasure of a good read. Sometimes it is as if a certain spirit is my companion as I engage in this form of
enlightenment or entertainment.
Best regards,
Bruce
PS: I hope you do not mind that
this entry started with a clock, gave honorable mention to a chair and wound up focusing on a lamp. It is the taming of random by making it a constant
tandem.

I like the concept but don't you have a cell phone to tell the time?

That thing never gets knocked off?

Man this one took me a minute to find what I was looking at. For some reason I just wasn't noticing the clock, everything else around it.
